I am a humanitarian photographer, filmmaker and nonprofit brand strategist.
I believe that we should not be “documenting” people in the humanitarian space, instead we need to be representing people with the images we make. If we are representing someone, we are speaking on their behalf with their best interests in mind. I believe ethical representation is the ultimate goal of the humanitarian photographer. Ethical representation means accurately portraying who they are in a way that increases their standing in the world and improves how people view them and their perceived value in the world.
The subjects of humanitarian photos deserve more than a photo that says this person that was assisted by an NGO.
They deserve the opportunity to look the world in the eye, and we as a global community need to be confronted with their beauty and their humanity.
We need the opportunity to look into their eyes and answer their unspoken demand for respect, that we hold them up as equals, worthy of our admiration.
